Robust Query-Specific Pseudo Feedback Document Selection for Query Expansion
In document retrieval using pseudo relevance feedback, after initial ranking, a fixed number of top-ranked documents are selected as feedback to build a new expansion query model. ...

Regularized estimation of mixture models for robust pseudo-relevance feedback
Pseudo-relevance feedback has proven to be an effective strategy for improving retrieval accuracy in all retrieval models. However the performance of existing pseudo feedback meth...

A Latent Dirichlet Framework for Relevance Modeling
Relevance-based language models operate by estimating the probabilities of observing words in documents relevant (or pseudo relevant) to a topic. However, these models assume that ...

Improving the Robustness of Language Models - UIUC TREC 2003 Robust and Genomics Experiments
In this paper, we report our experiments in the TREC 2003 Genomics Track and the Robust Track. A common theme that we explored is the robustness of a basic language modeling retri...
